Chapter 19 Public Trial Meeting
"With your killing efficiency, I don't think any bloody guy will survive long enough to be captured."

As Wang Ling, who had seen Su Yao's killing scene with his own eyes, he knew very well that in order to be captured by this murderer, the surrender must not only be swift and decisive, but also have good luck.

He was really surprised to capture so many prisoners this time.

"Bloody? What does that have to do with anything?"

Su Yao glanced at Wang Ling in confusion.

To be fair, the experience gains from killing and capturing were exactly the same. Under the premise of ensuring that there would be no escapes, he was actually more willing to capture some prisoners.

However, the captives in this game are not just a number. They require manpower to capture and manage, which consumes food and space.

Therefore, when he was alone, he would not consider the issue of prisoners at all.

That is to say, now that I have people under my command, I also found that I can assign friendly NPCs to help transfer and guard them, so I captured these and brought them back. Who knew that the upper limit would be reached so quickly:
"If we don't deal with these guys as soon as possible and make room for them, I will have to kill all the monsters tomorrow."

"Ah this..."

The image of Su Yao killing enemies flashed through Wang Ling's mind, and he couldn't help but shudder.

Who would have thought that such a handsome young man could kill more ruthlessly than those battle-experienced uncles, without even blinking an eye or a trace of emotion. It seemed as if what was being chopped down by the sword was not human lives, not even pigs and dogs, but just walking objects.

"Don't talk about tomorrow. The door can't be closed now. I don't plan to spend the whole night here."

Su Yao had a headache. With him here, the prisoners would not dare to rebel, and he would have no reason to kill them.

But he left. Once these people started to cause trouble, there would be some losses. At least the two friendly NPCs guarding them would be completely cool.

The NPC settings in the True Three Worlds are quite realistic. Each person corresponds to the local manpower data. They will not be refreshed regularly like some games, and they will die when they die.

Wouldn't it be foolish to waste precious manpower on the decision to reduce the number of prisoners?

In particular, these militiamen were specially spent and equipped by him in order to improve the village's reputation, prosperity, stability and other statistics.

Over there, Su Yao held his chin in deep thought, and over here, Wang Ling was at a loss.
"Why don't we move it to the guest room first and have someone watch over it..."

"A waste of manpower."

"Then what should we do...do we really have to find a reason to kill him?"

"Can it still be handled this way?" Su Yao's eyes lit up.

"what?"

"Come here, bring everyone in this room to the square."

After Su Yao finished commanding the soldiers, he patted Wang Ling on the shoulder and found a solution:
"Tell the old village chief to gather everyone together. I want to hold a public trial!"

"Public trial meeting?"

In the guest room on the second floor of the Wang family's Uburg, Lu Bu held the window and looked downstairs in confusion. He saw that the square was brightly lit and crowded. It was obviously past Haishi (between 9pm and 11pm), but it was as lively as a gathering.

"I heard that it was initiated by Chief Su, and the prisoners will be publicly interrogated soon." the soldier replied.

Upon hearing this name, Lu Bu's expression froze and he clenched his hands.

He woke up this afternoon, and Zhang Yang, who was standing by his side, immediately told him what happened next.

He had no complaints about this young colleague who was suddenly on the same level as him. Since ancient times, there has been no first in literature and no second in martial arts.

In the martial arts, the strong is strong and the weak is weak. There are no reasons or excuses.

At this young age, Lu Bu had also defeated all the invincible opponents in Bingzhou, so he knew it very well.

His skills are inferior to those of others, that's all.

In that battle, Lu Fengxian could be said to have tried his best, and even made a sudden move to seize the opportunity. Even so, he still lost.

Since this kid is not Hu'er, but now he has become his master, then Lu Bu can only say "heroic boy" like Zhang Yang.

Yes, he, Lu Fengxian, is a true hero, and he has no intention of being like some incompetent and furious defeated dog, losing first and then the battle, doing some embarrassing extra-game moves just to make people laugh.

But this just recognized that boy's fighting ability, but it didn't mean that he obeyed this person and allowed him to do all kinds of messy things.

"It's enough to send a small soldier to interrogate the prisoners, but how can we organize such a big battle? Where's Uncle Zhi, just let him do whatever he wants?"

"Zhang was informed in advance and agreed to the matter."

"Oh? That uncle actually agreed? Let's see what this public trial is all about."

"This public trial is really interesting."

While Lu Bu was staring intently at the proceedings of this strange meeting, Zhang Yang, who was sitting on both sides of the table with the old director, was also holding his beard, looking open-eyed.

The trial in the square finally reached its climax.

Kneeling side by side there were a total of 32 war criminals who had committed heinous crimes.

Following Su Yao's order, blood splattered and all of these people had their heads chopped off.

For a time, everyone was cheering and shouting. They were as excited as the New Year. Many people shouted blue sky and justice.

Justice is too righteous.

Not to mention that these ordinary people who face the loess all day long and have their backs to the sky have never seen anything like this. Even Lao Lichang and Zhang Yang have never seen such an open and just trial? For them, the only option other than execution for prisoners was not to become slaves.

Now the prisoners are being escorted up one by one. They first confess their crimes, and then the victims and other travelers confess their crimes. Each case seems to be solid evidence.

And that’s not all, the same crime was sentenced differently based on subjective intention and coercion. Except for the most heinous crime, which was sentenced to beheading, others were sentenced to different prison terms and hard labor. Some even thoughtfully issued a certificate at the same time. A detailed description of the amount of atonement silver corresponding to different prison terms.

As for the few honest herdsmen who were coerced and suffered minor harm and had done nothing bad, they were promised on the spot that they would be allowed to go home directly after the war. During this period, as long as they cooperated obediently, they would not even have to bear the burden of this place. Cost of living.

After such a trial, not only the indignation of the villagers was soothed, but also the prisoners became more honest and obedient, and even proactively explained their abilities and willingness to undertake the repair and construction of the village.

"Is this how the officials in Beijing handle cases?"

Zhang Yang asked the director curiously.

However, even though the clan prince Yun was an official in Beijing, he had never said anything about such a grand occasion, so he could only shake his head and sigh.
"I didn't expect that this man is not only very skilled in martial arts, he is also quite proficient in the art of controlling people. Zhang Zhichen has really found a genius for my big man."

Zhang Yang burst into laughter upon hearing this, and was about to say a few more words when his face darkened and he almost staggered.

Without him, it was all because that young prodigy did not take the usual path, and did not treat others politely after the incident. He actually climbed up the flagpole in the square in full view of everyone without saying a word, stood on the top of his big Chinese flag, and jumped Go over the eaves and walk over the wall.

Everyone's jaws dropped in shock.
